This paper reflects on, and examines some issues sidelined during the writing of a doctoral dissertation that was completed at the end of 2011. The study investigated the potential of the mobile phone as a pedagogic tool in a senior secondary technical school. While the methods employed for data collection and analysis were conventional and uncontentious, a certain boldness and imaginative engagement with the empirical findings was deemed necessary in order generate a thesis that was both sufficiently substantial and original. However, an underlying tension operated wherein fundamentally philosophical impulses of the researcher had to be balanced against simultaneously present institutional expectations and practical imperatives. In particular, some key remarks of Heidegger concerning technology and thinking, vied for attention and prominence within the research project agenda. An articulation and elaboration of this underlying tension between the philosophical and the practical only became possible after the work was completed. The return and manifestation of these marginalised and latent issues are here given closer attention.

Data Collection And Analysis

Within the field of educational research, there are several methods, approaches, and concerns a potential researcher must be made aware of. This chapter serves as an introduction to the process of educational research, and as such, is intended for novice researchers seeking to gain an overview of the process of envisioning, designing, and carrying out a successful research project. Further, this chapter addresses the kinds of research that are possible within the academic field, some of the ethical and practical considerations involved in human subject research, and best methodological practices. Four major methods of research are discussed: qualitative, quantitative, mixed methods, and action research. Each method is provided with information on the subtypes of research within each area, appropriate methods of data collection and analysis, and acceptable formats for reporting results for each methodological type.

Development And Validation

The previous chapters (Chapters 4 and 5) described the development and validation of a survey instrument for the purpose of data collection in order to examine broadband adoption, usage, and impact. Chapter 3 provided a discussion and justification of the data collection and analysis methods. This chapter presents the findings obtained from the survey that was conducted to examine the adoption, usage, and impact of broadband in UK households. The chapter is structured as follows. The next section describes the demographic profiles of the survey respondents. This is followed by a description of the findings relating to the adoption of broadband. The findings relating to the usage of broadband are then presented. This is followed by a description of the effects of broadband usage on consumers’ time allocation patterns in various daily life activities. Finally, the summary of the chapter is provided.

Quasi Experimental

A subset of international scholarship from the full Causality: School Libraries and Student Success corpus comprising empirical studies conducted in non-American locations (n=47) are examined for: geographic distribution, publication outlets, citations, data collection and analysis methods, and research strands. The majority of papers used one experimental design or two or more methods for quasi-experimental design approach for data collection, and used at least one or more often two or more data analysis methods. Six categories describe the research: learning environment, student attributes, teacher and school leadership characteristics, instructional interventions, academic skill development, and external factors for achievement.
